@Marvin I'm trying to configure a new worker for my prefect cloud environment based on the steps outlined here: https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect-helm/tree/main/charts/prefect-worker When I follow these steps install using helm, I get the error Error: secret "prefect-api-key" not found, despite defining it in the correct indicated file as shown. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong and what I need to change?

I can help you troubleshoot this issue. To start, let's check a few things: 1. Ensure that the Secret is Created Properly: Verify that the secret

prefect-api-key

has been correctly created in the Kubernetes cluster. 2. Check the Namespace: Ensure that the secret is created in the same namespace where you are installing the Prefect worker. If the namespace is different, Helm won't be able to find the secret. 3. Helm Values File: Ensure that the values file or the command you're using to install the chart is correctly pointing to the namespace where the secret is created. 4. Secret Syntax: Verify the syntax of the Kubernetes secret. Any mistake in formatting can cause the secret to not be created properly. Let's start by confirming your Prefect version. Once that's done, I can assist you with the specific steps depending on the version and any particular issues. Let me first check the necessary Prefect version information, and if there have been related issues. I'll also verify from Prefect documentation and GitHub if there are any additional known quirks or solutions for this problem. Based on the searches, here are the key steps and checks you can perform to resolve the issue with the missing

prefect-api-key

secret when deploying Prefect worker using Helm: 1. Ensure the Secret is Created: Make sure you have created the secret using the correct command. Verify that the secret exists in the correct namespace:

sh
   kubectl create secret generic prefect-api-key \
   --namespace=prefect --from-literal=key=your-prefect-cloud-api-key

2. Check the Namespace: Ensure the secret is in the same namespace where you're installing the Prefect worker. You can check the secrets in the namespace with:

sh
   kubectl get secrets --namespace=<your-namespace>

3. Helm Values File: Ensure that your

values.yaml

file is configured correctly to point to the correct namespace and includes the necessary details for API key retrieval. 4. Verify the Helm Command: Ensure that your

helm install

command is using the correct namespace:

sh
   helm install worker prefect/prefect-worker --namespace=prefect -f values.yaml

For a detailed configuration guide, check the Prefect documentation and GitHub issues related to this matter.

yeah fwiw my first guess would be a namespace mismatch
